Francisco labor council. I am actually quite proud here to stand here before you. The labor council, other unions and many other Community Organizations work hard for this calling us the coalition for the fair campaign, we got in the streets and negotiated with the mayor and with everybodys help we have come up with one of the most exciting minimum wage initiatives the country has ever seen. Many of us were there 10 years ago and now we are awe fully proud. I just want to caution you about ted eagans good report that in a week uc berkeley is going to produce another report, like the glass is half full and half empty where ted eagan said that 60,000 workers are going to benefit from this. We understand that over 100,000 workers from uc berkeley will benefit where ted eagan says the city will flow by the dollars. Uc says 10s if not hundreds of millions of dollars will benefit over time. This is really important for the city ....

Thank you for coming to speak. Good afternoon, john sacke Deputy Director and cochair of the council. Im here to speak in favor of this measure and especially about the provision which provides an alternative wage for government supported youth employees. 10 years ago, while we very much supported the minimum wage measure, providers who provides work for youth were not available. Hundreds of the youth we served their positions were unfortunately eliminated due to limitations in available resources. Right now young people are recovering from the highest youth unemployment on record in this country. My organization alone is weight ait listing over 2,000 people a year. It was vital that we maintain at the table the need for these young peoples needs were addressed. Im very pleased to say that folks were very sensitive to the needs of these young people. It would be great to pay a few of them a little bit more, but by far the need to ....

Preliminary scoping just to see how far down the budget we would be able to get . So in march we would like to come back with the plan okay with the 15. 5 Million Dollars this is the number of playgrounds we think we could do in the first effort and the schedule for those. I think the other main piece of the feedback from the Task Force Committee which was mostly at the last meeting that we rebrand this program and while failing playgrounds sells gets you votes for bonds its not necessarily the inspiring title that you need to engender stewardship and commitment over the longterm. I was unable to singlehandedly able to come up with a rebrand between the Task Force Meeting and today and i will work with the Task Force Members and when we come back in m ....

Which included the entire airport operations, was in 1972. And there have been various reviews of the airport such as landing fees and other matters, but there has not been to my knowledge, a comprehensive management order of the airport since 1972. Now, as a matter of sort of the best practice, from what i remember, our own board rules have a suggested time line for how often a management audit is supposed to be conducted. And can you address that . Well, the, and i think that the board once authorized or directed a management audit and the department should undergo a management audit every three years. But as a every eight. Every eight, excuse me, every eight years, that is what i was thinking. As a practical matter, that is a difficult thing to do under our existing work load, but clearly this department has not had a comprehensive for. Controller . Just to briefly add that i think that mr. Rose is speaking to the boards budget and analyst office, and we also do the auditing in the ....
